GamesIndustryBiz is today featuring an extensive -and rather good- interview with NCSoft co-founder Jeff Strain. In the interview Strain talks at length about the sustainability of Guild Wars' episodic nature and other aspects of MMOG development, but also the Xbox Live! business model, which, he says, is not conducive to the development of their titles for the Xbox 360, and that he foresees a shift in Microsoft's business practices to facilitate this development.
